In general, i would lose the shielded missile drones with the riptide, if you lose 1 you have to take moral, and that has cost me several riptides. Also they cannot 4d6 jet thrust with the riptide should you want/need to.

I don't put drones with my firewarriors, but depends on your meta and taste. as many as you are taking it's worth trying to get the drone net in to make them all bs3.

Hammerheads are meh, mine always under-perform. 1 shot rail gun suffers from 1 shot gun syndrome, it will hit then never roll better than a 1. And the rail guns is ap3, which is fine, but not great.

Between FW and kroot you have 4 troops slots, do you need 4? and 2 FW squads are at max, trim them down a few?

How are your crisis suits loaded? if armor hunting 6 drones is probably a liability in deepstike footprint and s5 guns aren't best versus armor,

Stealth suits are expensive for their purpose, and t3 isn't amazing. Kroot can infiltrate if you keep them.
